PDF text parsing

As shown in the preferece window, we have two options for parsing text from PDFs:

1. Use Llama Parse (recommended): This is a service (free plan includes 1000 pages/day) that uses the Llama Parse API to extract text from PDFs. You can sign up for a free account at https://cloud.llamaindex.ai/. After signing up, you create an API key that you can use to extract text from PDFs.
2. Use PDF.js: This is a local way to extract text from PDFs. It is not as accurate as Llama Parse.
